==Archaeology==
An ancient flint factory was excavated as part of three Heavy Neolithic sites of the Qaraoun culture discovered and excavated by Francis Turville-Petre between 1925 and 1926. Others included Shemouniyeh and an occupational site of the Qaroun culture at Wadi Sallah. The site at Wadi Farah was identified as a factory site on a high terrace at the meeting point of the Wadi Salhah. Large numbers of massive flint tools and debris from were found and linked to this little known culture. Tools found included picks, adzes, borers and flake scrapers.
An archaeological mound situated near the village of Wadi al-Far'a, Tell el-Far'ah (North), has been identified as the location of biblical Tirzah. The tell has occupation layers from the Neolithic, Chalcolithic, Bronze Age, and Iron Age. It is called Tell el-Far'ah (North) in order to distinguish it from Tell el-Far'ah (South), an archaeological site south of Gaza.
